I wonder if this is 'that' PLN??? Probably huh?

Yes, I took photos of that 510 years later when it sat on pole for an SCCA race at Sears Point.

I came across this site today with a ton of vintage Z photos. It looks like a few are from members here.

I think this is '50's or '60's and not Datsun but it serves as a reminder to keep your safety equipment serviceable... YIKES!!!

That picture is from the Goodwood Revival in England from a few years ago. The guy was OK but beat up a bit. I was at Goodwood for this year's Revival and it was amazing. Those guys drive 100% in multi-million dollar equipment.

In one race the drivers included Bobby Rahal, Derick Bell, Jackie Oliver, Richard Attwood(I think) amongst other greats.

I was at Goodwood for this year's Revival and it was amazing.

Whilst you were at the 2010 Goodwood Revival Meeting, did you venture into the 'Earls Court Motor Show' building?

Kevin Bristow's works 1971 RAC Rally 240Z was on display, and my KPGC10 Skyline GT-R was next to it. Our cars were guests on the Nissan show stand:

Nice, a touch of real class....

...Until the owners turned up and spoiled it LOL

Kevin's car got attacked by a bunch of over-enthusiastic visitors. Fingerprints all over the car. Took ages to take all their phone numbers....

Alan, a little dry English wit! I like it!!

Good to see a Nissan presence at Goodwood, Amelia Island and Monterey in 2010.

Could Nissan be embracing their past??

Here is a map of the original Watkins Glen Course. Just for giggles I embedded a YouTube video of a guy I know driving it in a rental car. He buries the needle at least three times. He is a decendent of Colin Chapman and has been a pro driver so 'don't try this at home - yada yada yada'
